Hello world!

I kept saying I’d do it and a friend at my library inspired me to get a move on with her enthusiasm as she became interested in researching her family. So, “Hello world!”

Give me a little time to figure out what I’m doing… but ideally this will be a place where I pull thoughts together while researching my varied family lines.

I have effectively been away from genealogy in the past couple of years but this spring I had a couple of wake-up calls that helped me remember that this hobby of mine is one of my true passions and I’d been neglecting it to my own detriment.

Anyway, I’m back with renewed passion, a ton of leads and boxes full of information that has sat between research trips. So, in this blog I’ll be talking about sources, mulling over brickwalls, talking triumphs, and posting roadtrip diaries.
